6 4 TORLYS CorkWood The Cork Story The Eco-Friendly Choice. Cork floors are made without cutting down any cork oak trees. The cork bark is carefully harvested once every nine years, in centuries-old traditions with hand tools, ensuring that forests will remain undamaged. It is not unusual to have a 200-year-old tree that still produces cork bark! TORLYS is the first to offer an entire cork collection that is FSC (Forest Stewardship Council ) Certified. The recognition is achieved by passing the rigorous standards established by the FSC, ensuring the wood and cork used in manufacturing comes from responsibly managed forests. TORLYS even encourages (and warranties) re-purposing cork smart floors in another room or home, making it the ultimate eco-friendly flooring choice.

Clean and Comfortable At TORLYS, we are dedicated to providing your family with a comfortable and hygienic flooring solution. Our products meet California Section requirements, one of the most stringent indoor air quality standards in the world. Being composed of millions of tiny air pockets, cork is a great insulator and is quiet and comfortable underfoot.

It is even infused with Microban antimicrobial product protection to inhibit the growth of mould and mildew. Durability Built-In All TORLYS cork floors are created with quality in mind. They are made with a precisely engineered high-density wood smart core, which is more dent resistant than other floors.

The extremely durable TORLYS smart finish has been integrated into every TORLYS cork floor.
